What would it take to introduce a robot into a human team, in an environment designed for humans? Sharing a workspace with humans and augmenting them to accomplish a task more effectively raises several important challenges. Humans must be able to effectively program the robot, as well as help it recover and learn from errors. The robot must be safe and intuitive, both through its hardware and through the way it acts and moves. It must not only possess or learn a model of the task at hand, but also coordinate its actions with those of its teammates within that model. In order to achieve this coordination, the robot must communicate relentlessly and via numerous channels (e.g. speech, gaze, motion). This full-day workshop will feature three oral sessions as well as a poster session. The oral sessions will consist of invited talks, contributed paper spotlights, and will feature a discussion that centers around a relevant challenge/issue in the community. Any papers that discuss challenges in developing human-robot collaborative systems in natural human environments are welcomed. In particular, we invite submissions that are centered on the following topics:

We welcome all papers that contribute to the field of human robot collaboration including reactive behavior, learning from demonstration, coordination, and communication. All submissions will receive at least two single-blind reviews and be evaluated in terms of significance, relevance, and technical quality.
